Abstract
A method of controlling an industrial actuator, the method including receiving a manual input in the form of a displacement of an input element; in response to the manual input being a displacement of the input element from the neutral position in a first input direction, controlling the industrial actuator to move in a forward direction along a movement path and with a speed corresponding to a magnitude or a speed of the displacement from a neutral position; and in response to the manual input being a displacement of the input element from the neutral position in a second input direction, controlling the industrial actuator to move in a backward direction along the movement path and with a speed corresponding to a magnitude or a speed of the displacement from the neutral position.
